Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Oral Pathology
  • Neonatal Surgery

Background:

  • Congenital epulis is an uncommon benign tumor presenting at birth.
  • Early diagnosis and management are crucial for infant oral health.

Observation:

  • A case report details a female neonate diagnosed with congenital epulis.
  • The tumor was treated using conservative surgical intervention.

Findings:

  • Post-operative follow-up over three years revealed no recurrence.
  • Normal dental development and alveolar bone formation were observed in the patient.

Implications:

  • Conservative surgical management appears effective for congenital epulis.
  • This approach supports favorable long-term oral and maxillofacial outcomes in affected newborns.
